A day we can all take some joy in; how'd current leaders get to it?

The start of the work week began with the release of the remaining (living) Israeli hostages by Hamas. It's a moment in human history we should all be able to find common joy.

The question is this: how did Trump secure a deal that eluded Joe Biden? I believe (rightly so, reporting would reveal) Benjamin Netenyahu had a rooting interest in the 2024 Presidential election here.

Before anyone begins thinking I'm softening on the Trump administration over one good news cycle, however, it begs the question: how can the Trump White House orchestrate a deal to end the Israel / Hamas war while still waging war on non-MAGA America?

They whacked an entire Education Department unit charged with overseeing special education programs. CEO/Founder at the New Disabled South, Dom Kelly, took to social media to provide a furious, frustrated response.

Keeping up with the evolution of Marjorie Taylor Greene from bombastic radical MAGA nutjob to concerned momma bear bucking her party and finding agreement from and with Democrats is quite an experience. Atlanta Journal Constitution op/ed contributor Jamie Dupree is among us (and her) who note that the GOP has had fifteen years to craft an Obamacare alternative and have come up empty. Trump told us - in 2016 - it was coming out in a matter of "weeks."

It's been more than 460 weeks since Trump first won the presidency in 2016. How many more "weeks" will we need to continue waiting before that plan comes out?

Wouldn't it be something if they suddenly came out with a plan to provide "Medicare for All?"
